A special Pink Saturday (and a giveaway)...



Happy Pink Saturday, all! This is a very special Pink Saturday: Our weekly tribute to pink is celebrating its second birthday. In honor of the milestone, I'm holding a little giveaway. But first, I thought I'd share a couple of my favorite pink and white baskets.
These are some of Longaberger's Horizon of Hope baskets. Longaberger donates a portion of the profits to breast cancer research, hence the pink ribbons. I love the pale colors and the liners are beautiful. A message of hope is always welcome, don't you think?




And now, to celebrate Pink Saturday's second birthday, I thought I'd give away these adorable little pink and chocolate journals from Vera Bradley:



The set contains three mini-journals; the pages are lined. All you need to do to enter is leave a comment on this post by Thursday, June 3. If you are a follower, let me know and I'll throw your name in the hat a second time. I'll announce the winner next Saturday.
Please stop by Beverly's place at How Sweet the Sound to see a complete list of this week's participants. Pink Saturday wouldn't be possible without Beverly's work each week, so be sure to leave her a kind word as well.
Wishing all of you a beautiful holiday weekend!

    Happy Pink Saturday. The baskets are gorgeous. What a beautiful fabric.

    Great give-away. I love writing in journals. It's supposed to be good for you too - calming and reflective.

    Hope you have a great Memorial day weekend.

    I think we've all celebrated Pink Saturday beautifully and are still doing so right into Sunday. I have a little giveaway as well, so come on over. I love those little journals, I use journals all the time, as I'm a bit out of touch if I can't see my "to do's" on a piece of paper...IPhone, Blackberry all OK, I just still need the presence of paper. Wonderful giveaway. You know I'm already a follower. xx's

    What a wonderful blog, I just signed up to follow....I even love the music. Your plants are doing great, I haven't yet had time to take care of my gardens this year, I'm so sad about that but I'm going to try to do something today while hubby is mowing the lawn and before the cookout begins...I better get started.

    Take care,
